Black Leather/Shiny Metal?

Support Materials and Textures
1

Has anyone out there ever come across a nice black leather texture (like for furniture)? I have searched all of the texture sites on Blender with no luck. I have actually found a couple of candidates with image search engines, but I was just wondering if anyone had already found success with a certain texture…

Also, how can a shiny metal texture be achieved?

Thanks for the help!

a 30 second search on this very site. Took longer to type this reply.

Try this page for metals:

Leather is the example on the top right of the page also. Though it’s not what you’re looking for, playing with the settings could yield acceptable results?

Thanks…another site to add to my ‘Blender’ bookmarks folder!

Also I did eventually find a good leather texture, so that is solved!
